She could barely make out shapes in full light and had some medicinal leaves on her temples for the eternal headache that her son had left her the last time he went through the bedroom. She was on her side, clutching the cords at the head of the hammock as she tried to get up, and there in the half shadows was the baptistry smell that had startled me on the morning of the crime.No sooner had I appeared on the threshold than she confused me with the memory of Santiago Nasar. “There he was,” she told me. “He was dressed in white linen that had been washed in plain water because his skin was so delicate that it couldn’t stand the noise of starch.” She sat in the hammock for a long time, chewing pepper cress seeds, until the illusion that her son had returned left her.
